| Introduction | I'm an Indiana Hoosier who always wished to be a resident of Greenwich Village in New York. I'm a mix of bohemian and conservative, which is not very comfortable sometimes! I hope I never read an e-book, but will continue to curl up in a big chair and read real books with leather covers and soft, quality paper. My sense of humor is dark, my personality half introvert, half extrovert, I am not politically correct, and believe me, this mix makes for an interesting existence in today's culture... |
